Two Meitei men who were allegedly abducted by suspected Kuki militants on Friday have appealed to Manipur Chief Minister N Biren Singh to secure their release, The Hindu reported.

On Sunday, a video was widely shared on social media in which one of the men can be heard urging the chief minister to agree to the demands of their alleged abductors to rescue them. They did not mention what the demands were.

However, unidentified officials told the Hindustan Times that the demand from the state government was the release of Kuki activist Mark T Haokip, who was held on charges of secessionism in 2022.
